Credit applied to your next year’s Membership Dues of up to $200 or the maximum amount of your annual Membership Dues, whichever is the lesser. (If total credits exceed the full annual dues for the following year, the remaining credits will be carried over to the following year’s annual dues (i.e. Social Member refers 2 Senior members in the same year, that member receives Membership Dues credit spread over 2 years).

Social Member
(A non-boat owner)

Your name will be entered into a draw* for a $50 credit applied to your AYC food and beverage account

A new Member is defined as a first-time member of AYC.

There is no limit to the number of referrals you can make.

Only one referral credit will be made by AYC for each new Member referred during the period of the program. In the case where more than one referral form is received for the same new Senior Member, the credit will be divided equally among each confirmed referral claim form.

The period between a claim for a referral credit and an application for membership to the AYC Office by the person being referred must not exceed twelve (12) months.

Rewards must be accepted as awarded. Rewards have no cash value and cannot be substituted for other fees and/or dues, or combined with any other offers, nor be transferred to another member’s account.

*The draw will take place at the annual Budget & Election Meeting in November.
